About this episode

People-first companies prioritize their people and foster a culture of hiring. They understand that people are their most valuable asset, so they treat all their people practices – especially hiring – as strategic, rather than administrative, functions.

Join host Donald Knight, Chief People Officer at Greenhouse, as he sits down with individuals at innovative organizations such as Kickstarter, WPP, SoundExchange and more to discover how these companies prioritize their people.

In each episode, you’ll discover why the most successful companies recognize diversity as the key to fostering creativity and improving business performance, as well as spurring innovation and creating positive social good. You’ll also get practical, sustainable strategies you can use to start making your own company more people-first.
